– An
elderly
Northside woman
living on rural
Highway 378 east
called the
Edgefield County
Sheriff's Office
to report what
she believes are
hunters in the
surrounding
forests in the
area shooting at
night on more
than one
occasion.

A deputy met
with the woman
who said the
shots are coming
from the woods
around her house
during the
nighttime hours.
The deputy took
the report and
informed the
woman she should
also contact the
South Carolina
Department of
Natural
Resources
(SCDNR), which
the woman did
following
speaking with
the deputy.

The deputy
informed the
woman to call
the Sheriff's
Office the next
times she hears
shots so that
they can patrol
the area and try
to identify the
hunters and what
they are
hunting.

The deputy also
faxed a copy of
the incident
report to SCDNR
to make sure
they were
advised of the
complaint.
